“It’s Been Great to Learn a Completely New Skill and to Make One-Off Pieces of Jewellery”

“Signed up for classes with Martin and Tracy at their studio/workshop in St Albans three years ago and have been attending one morning a week most of the time since then. It’s been great to learn a completely new skill and to make one-off pieces of jewellery for myself and the family – including a simple gold wedding ring for my son when he got married last year. It’s fun and addictive – and my Wednesdays wouldn’t be the same without it.”

“They Offer Superb Teaching in the Best-Equipped Workshop Any Student Could Dream of”

“Having embarked on numerous jewellery courses over the years, I have enormous respect for the skill, expertise and experience that Martin Hopton and Tracy Furlong have. They offer superb teaching in the best-equipped workshop any student could dream of. I would recommend courses at The St Albans Jewellery School above all others.”
